	abstract = {The assignment of the H-1 and C-13 NMR spectra of alpha-bixin, methyl alpha-bixin, beta-bixin and methyl beta-bixin have been carried out using a combination of one- and two-dimensional techniques; the FAB(+) mass spectra of all these bixins had the molecular ion and methyl tropylium as high abundance peaks; also, the structures of alpha-bixin and methyl alpha-bixin have been confirmed by X-ray crystal structure determinations.},
